Since I was a child, I always wanted to become a surgeon. My dad was one for a while, and to this day I am very proud to have been inspired by him. As I grew up, I always heard him talk about how his department helped countless patients from what could have potentially been their demise. Aside from the fact that it increased the amount of respect I had for my dad, I later realized that it fostered my sincere intentions on saving and relieving people from detrimental and life-threatening diseases. In my Junior year of high school, I studied Anatomy and Physiology, the subject that revealed to me how much I want to study medicine. In that year-long course, I learned about the several organ systems in a very specific, detailed manner, and then implemented the knowledge I acquired into solving real-life clinical questions- my favorite part. The course was not a particularly easy one, but I enjoyed every bit of it. Till this day I am still intrigued to know how one disease in a system can cause symptoms to appear in several others; in other words, everything is interconnected. Once you are able to make sense of it, you get that indescribable sense of enlightenment. Chongqing Medical University is known for its high educational standards, its unique level of diversity, and its affordable price. Being one of the fastest-growing cities out there, Chongqing offers an exciting opportunity and a chance to experience all that I am looking for and more with its rich history and attractive lifestyle.
